Late Monday night, a deranged gunman opened fire on students at Michigan State University, killing three and leaving five others in critical condition. On Tuesday evening the three evening news broadcasts were quick to jump to their usual playbook of overblowing how frequent mass shootings in the United States are and turning to guests or victims to plea for gun control. All three networks…

The PBS NewsHour, hypersensitive to threats to “gun safety” measures (their words), sounded unpleasantly surprised on Thursday evening’s edition by a federal appeals court ruling allowing people under domestic violence restraining orders to have guns, based on the Supreme Court’s Bruen decision in June 2022. It’s part of a PBS pattern emphasizing what its journalists benignly…

Despite approval ratings that show him to be way underwater, Mika Brzezinski claims that President Biden is "extremely well-liked," adding, "they kind of like Joe Biden! They kind of like him!"

On PBS’s weekly journalist roundtable show Washington Week, National Public Radio Weekend Edition host Ayesha Rascoe and NBC News’ Ryan Nobles (formerly at CNN) discussed the brutal, fatal attack on Tyre Nichols, expanding from the killing to explore bizarre explanations for the attack by the five black police officers, including “white supremacy,” “food insecurity,” and even…

Last week we discussed how many on the Left considered the death of a black suspect, Tyre Nichols, following a beating by five Memphis black cops, an example of police anti-black “systemic racism.” Columbia Law Professor Kimberle Crenshaw, a proponent of critical race theory, offered this hysterical perspective: “Anyone who knows the history of enslavement, anyone who knows the history of…

On Thursday, Fox News reported that a second Republican council member from New Jersey was assassinated in the span of a week. The first was councilwoman Eunice Dwumfour from Sayreville, New Jersey who was brutally shot and killed outside her townhome on February 1. Over a week later, Republican Milord councilman Russell Heller was killed outside his workplace. For all the leftist media’s…

Wednesday’s Amanpour & Co. opened with a long interview with Jelani Cobb, dean of Columbia University's Journalism School and a New Yorker staff writer. Cobb, who leads a school for future journalists, forwarded the wild argument that the five black police officers who killed Tyre Nichols could have been motivated by self-hatred, having internalizing “white supremacy.”…

The football made me do it!

It became national, indeed, international news that five Memphis police officers grabbed, punched, beat, pepper-sprayed and stun-gunned a black suspect, named Tyre Nichols, who later died at the hospital. A picture of him in his hospital bed showing his swollen, battered and bloodied face went viral on social media.

This week, tape emerged from Memphis, Tennessee of five black police officers engaging in the beating of Tyre Nichols, a 29-year-old black man. Nichols was pulled over for reckless driving according to the officers; they ordered him to get on the ground and to give them his hands; he did not comply and instead began to run. When the officers caught up with him, they pummeled him, complete with…

As PBS NewsHour special on survivors of gun-related violence squeezed in a liberal agenda. Interviewees claimed the media thinks mass shootings involving whites are a national issue, but when it's blacks, nobody cares: "The media often neglects to illuminate black suffering in similar ways and to provide attention that's given to it almost as if you deserve to be shot, right?"

Wesley Lowery, a former Washington Post reporter who covers police issues and race, appeared on PBS’s news roundup Washington Week Friday to talk about the brutal killing of Tyre Nichols at the hands of police after a traffic stop in Memphis, and both he and the emotional show host Yamiche Alcindor insisted anti-black racism was so widespread in America that it…

Friday’s White House press briefing saw more hardballs about President Biden’s documents scandal, but also plenty of eye-rolling questions lobbying for a female person of color to become White House chief of staff, how Biden processes racial tensions, whether “the culture of policing” has “a comfort with violence and” implants inside the minds of police officers “an entitlement to use violence…

Late Saturday night, Atlanta, Georgia was beset by the latest riot by Antifa and far-left thugs as they set a police car on fire, shot explosives at a police building, and caused property destruction. All told, six have been arrested so far and charged with domestic terrorism. And despite nearly four minutes of coverage on Sunday’s Face the Nation, CBS’s flagship morning and evening…
